Hcg steak day phase 2 after cheating

Yes it is. But this doesn’t mean it won’t happen. I think on almost all my rounds I had at least 1 cheat day – that said, when I did, it never felt worth it! It was a giving in that if I’d had more self control or more tools at my disposal I would have chosen NOT to – as I mention in my vlog from Round 5 when I cheated, it just wastes so much time on a protocol that is difficult and finite. Like in this case, I wasted about 4 days before being able to get lower in weight than where I was before I cheated. Like this:

• Day before cheat: New weight yay!
• Day 1: cheat – ate multiple porkchops with butter
• Day 2: .8 gain
• Day 3: lose part of that gain
• Day 4: back to day before cheat weight
• Day 5: Finally new lower weight than before cheat day.

Do you see how long and drawn out this process is – especially when you consider there was only 1 stinkin’ fun day that I got to enjoy myself eating more food?? It took another 3 days of just regaining lost ground while still having to eat the 500 calorie diet. Sheesh. So not worth it.

The other thing I have FREQUENTLY heard is youtube videos where someone cheats, then comes on the next day and says “Wow, I didn’t gain, I even still lost a little weight…I guess I got away with it!” This makes people think that sometimes your body doesn’t notice the cheat and you can just carry on as usual. However, what many people don’t see is that usually, there is ANOTHER follow-up video, the day or two after that, where they were still eating the 500 calorie diet, but experienced a 1 lb gain THEN. Or a stall.

So don’t be fooled! If you do an out and out real time cheat ladies – we’re not talking raising your calories to 800 with P2 foods (that’s an actual hCG protocol people lose weight with) – I’m talking about blunders like mine: eating the cake, having the 2 slices of pizza, the 2 porkchops as big as my face in butter – if you do that, you will almost 100% at one point during the following week experience the results of that cheat – it may not be the very next day, but you will likely waste as least 3-5 days of your journey recovering from that.

Here’s a couple resources to help you:

Fastest Way to Get Over a Cheat

How to Cheat SMARTER on the hCG Diet

When you keep the cheats away on the HCG Diet program you will see the pounds fall away. It’s worth it!

So … you cheated on your HCG Diet program.  Ooops!  Here are some things that can help!

“Oh, no!  I cheated!  What will happen now,”  this is a common question that my HCG Diet  patients ask me on their program. The real answer is “your human, be gentle with yourself and hit the reset button to move forward with the plan!”

If your very lucky and if the cheat was fairly minor (which means it did not impact blood sugar too much) you might have absolutely nothing happen … no loss and no gain and it all goes as planned.  The most common thing to have happen is a small gain of a few tenths of a lb and weight loss resumes the next day.  In some cases, you will lose weight the day after the cheat and stall the following day. Worst case scenario is that the cheat causes you to stall for a few days.

CAN A CHEAT ON THE HCG DIET BE “FIXED”

Cheats on the HCG Diet program can not necessarily be “fixed.”  However, clinically, I have seen that adhering to the program as strict as you can for 2 days post cheat is a good way to go. Many of my patients will let go of the fruit and just go for the protein and veggies for a couple of days!  Also, be sure that you are drinking plenty of water. I like to recommend 2-4 liters each day on the program.  The apple day after a cheat does not seem to be as effective as a couple days of protein and veggies from the HCG Diet phase 2 food list!

Why is it Best not to Cheat on the HCG Diet Program?

Unlike many other weight loss programs, cheating on the HCG Diet has  a strong impact on the program. The HCG Diet is a hormonally based diet.  In many cases, a cheat can lead to a stall of 2-5 days.  If you continue to cheat once per week on this program, you might not gain but you will most likely not lose very much either. If you can stick with the program as outlined, you will have much better results than someone who cheats here and there.  The first week is the heardest and after that, the body gets into a groove with it. Give it your ALL y’all!
